Vine

Our Ian and his "BOSH!" mate Henry were on the telly again today. Actually, it has been  quite a while since they were last on. Today they were guests on "The Jeremy Vine Show" on Channel 5. During the live screening of this morning chat show programme, the news broke that "Prince" Andrew had been arrested by police on the royal Sandringham estate in Norfolk.

Fortunately, news of that arrest did not impinge on the "BOSH!" slot. Jeremy Vine was a nice host. He asked thoughtful questions and made Ian and Henry feel comfortable. It was a far cry from the time they were interviewed by self-obsessed Piers Morgan who seemed to be only interested in his own voice. Not the best trait for an effective TV host.
Today, not only did Ian and Henry get to talk about their new book but they also got to play their part in discussing interesting newspaper articles printed this very morning.

"More Plants" is their eighth book. It was published a week ago and as the title suggests it simply shows yet more ways of creating great, tasty vegan meals. 

Ian and Henry have been on their vegan mission for eleven years now. It has been quite a journey. They even have their own Wikipedia page. Go here. Wikipedia fails to mention that they now have products in big "Tesco" supermarkets across the country - in both chilled and freezer sections.

Naturally, Shirley and I are immensely proud of what Ian has done in the last decade. We are heading down to London to see him and our grandson little Zachary tomorrow morning. Consequently, Friday's blogpost will be "scheduled" and that will also be its title.
